Welcome to my blog, where I share my love of books, travelling, cats and other things... but mainly books!
An avid bookworm since childhood, I write the sort of stories I love to read – heart-warming, character driven and strong on location. Having moved around extensively and lived in three countries, I find places inspiring and the setting of my novels often becomes as much a part of the story as the characters.
I lean heavily towards the upbeat and insist on a happy ever after. As one of my favourite authors, Jane Austen, once wrote, ‘let other pens dwell on guilt and misery’.
I love travelling, words, cats and wine but never in the same glass, and I currently split my time between Switzerland, where I live with my husband and imaginary cats, and England, where I live with my characters.
Poor Anne…this is sadder than canon in which she knew her was alive but just not available to her. Wondering if Anne will speak with his brother and learn he did not go down with the Laconia? Darcy wrestling with his unacknowledged attachment to Elizabeth…much to look forward to there. Will he propose and be rejected? Will he redirect Bingley before Jane accepts Collins? Thanks for this chapter.

So many questions at this stage!

Oh my heart breaks for poor Anne, I’m glad Lizzy is there for her, otherwise that poor girl wouldn’t have received one jot of compassion from her horrible vain uncaring family.
Darcy is in an emotional mess as well over Lizzy, wanting to be with her but deeming she (and her family) is/are unsuitable. What a shock he would get when he discovers Lizzy doesn’t like him at all 😳 !!
Darcy needs to be careful in his visits to Kellyinch, because in her vanity the WRONG Elizabeth is going to think he’s interested in her 😁

Poor, Poor Anne. I hope Lizzy can help. I agree, Darcy needs to be careful around the “Elizabeths.” I wonder if he will spill the beans about GW at some point other than the “Hunsford” moment. I wonder if Anne and Lizzy will befriend Georgiana. Looking forward to more.

Poor Anne! It’s lucky she has Elizabeth to care for her as her father and sisters don’t care at all (apart from worrying if she might be infectious!)
I’m positive Wentworth hasn’t died so I do hope she discovers that sooner rather than later, even if they don’t yet get back together!
The Colonel needs to come back as I’m certain he would put Elizabeth right about Wickham? Especially when he realises how obsessed Darcy is with her!

Loving the positivity over Captain Wentworth!
Yes, we need the colonel, but he has a few more days on duty first! 😊

Ohhh poor Anne my heart is breaking for her and her future and her fond/loving remembrances of Frederick! I hope they are not all lost!
And Darcy’s and Elizabeth’s attraction continues to deepen and confuse them both! The plot thickens with ever more chapters! And I love it ❤️

Poor Anne! All I could think of was her canon belief about loving longest when hope was gone. Hurry up, Frederick! Oh Darcy…if you only knew what was ahead, you clueless dunderhead.
